Tanerexic

A condition, common among middle and highschool girls, presents itself as a vile orange fake tan. Spray on tan, tanning booth, all are ways of contracting Tanerexia. It is nearing epidemic status at MKA...

It can also be used as a noun, to describe one who has Tanerexia.

Other forms of calling someone a tanerexic are - Orange Bob (those Tanerexics who also have orange hair) and Tanaholic, a slightly more polite version.

Jill is such a frigging tanerexic. She could hide in a bucket of oranges!

tanorexic

Also called sun worshippers. They see a very pasty pale person when they stare into the mirror. A person who has an obsession with tanning. Not limited to any sex or race, they are predominantly white females. Tanorexics missed the memo that said that too much sunlight, specifically UV rays, is a leading cause of skin cancer, almost as bad as smoking cigarettes like a chimney which many tanorexics indulge in also. Tanorexics can easily be identified as having skin a sickly brown color, taking on a certain shade of poop the darker they get. This skin is many times darker than their sun bleached hair. A tanorexic thinks that dark skin makes them desirable and sexy. If a tanorexic tans many years, their skin takes on a leathery appearance and will form creases and folds, especially on the face, making one look older than their actual age, and possibly uglier than they would have been otherwise. They also keep the cost of insurance rising due to their frequency of skin cancer breakout. The common personality traits of a tanorexic are: sel-absorbtion, dimb-wittedness, and in defiance of common logic about the harmful affects of radiation. They tend to have a large majority of population incidence of skin cancer. The common types of tanorexics include: vain teenage girls, the party girls, the trophy wives (otherwise known as the rich bitches who don't have to work because their husband is a doctor/lawyer/corporate executive), the wrinkled old dark bitches who still think they look good( they fit in the previous category as well).

That wrinkled old tanorexic needs to go indoors and hide her ugly self.

Tanorexics like to sip martinis by the pool side.

tanorexic

A person addicted to tanning; the disorder in which people may feel that they NEED to be tan.

Much like anorexia (the root word) tanorexic people are both mentally and physically addicted to tanning.

Physical addiction: UVA rays can give the feeling of euphoria or a natural "high" similar to the euphoric feeling experienced after exercising.

"I love tanning; could I be a tanorexic?"

wanarexic

One who wishes to become anorexic. Generally a young female under 13 years of age who believes anorexia nervosa is a lifestyle choice rather than a mental illness. Often she makes an active decision to "start ana" in order to drop a few pounds. She may engage in anorexic behaviors such as self-starvation, but the root of her dieting is not the same as one who genuinely suffers from an eating disorder. Her desire to become anorexic may fade when she sees the true consequences... or when she sees a shiny object.

That girl wouldn't be such a wanarexic if she knew how painful eating disorders really are.
